The San Mateo County Office of Labor Standards and Enforcement (OLSE) works to advance fair labor practices throughout San Mateo County. 

We envision a San Mateo County where: 

  • All workers are paid a fair wage and treated respectfully.​
  • Responsible employers are not undercut by competitors who don’t follow the law.

To ask questions or file a complaint, call our free and confidential Labor Advice Hotline at 1-866-870-7725, send us an email at OLSE@smcgov.org, or submit an online inquiry.
